On the slopes.
This will probably be a pretty hefty blog post, as there's loads of photos. Makes up for the load I've missed, right?
So I've decided to split it into two posts so I can talk about both parts of my trip.

I have finally been on my long awaited trip to the USA!

First stop, Vermont!

I learned how to ski, rode in an American school bus (which I deleted my photo of, dammit), went bowling, did a bit of failed ice skating and had an interesting time shopping.

I don't particularly understand the whole concept of waffles and syrup at breakfast. It's like eating dessert! It was amazing to start the day with them for the first two days, then they lost their magic. 

Then I spent five days falling over, screaming, and eventually skiing down Killington Mountain. It was amazing. It was really sad to see it end after the five days.

I got completely thrashed when bowling, as I find it hard to lift the balls. I have weak arms from breaking them as a kid.

Then ice skating failed too. I'm not very good at it because it scares me. I've broken my hand doing it.
I spent a majority of my evening smushed against the glass for safety.

We went to a small shopping complex, and visited a K Mart. I stocked up on a lot of sugary goodies for our hotel room. They were much better than half the food they served us.

Another night we went to a pizza restaurant and it was karaoke night, and it was so awesome. That's where the group photo at the top of this entry is from.

I will probably mention more stuff at a later date. It's too late at night for me to know what I'm talking about!
